Is it safe to park car in airport parking for a week?

Travelling with immediate family on a flight that leaves at odd times. I don't want to take a taxi or uber and don't want to bother extended family to drop us off and pick us up. Just wondering if anyone has parked their car for a week at the airport car park. I know they have an underground level where the rentals are kept, I'd rather keep it there. Thoughts?

Strict US warnings to Salam and threats of sanctions: Trump administration will not tolerate a government that includes Hezbollah or its allies

American sources familiar with Middle East affairs in the Trump administration reported that Washington is closely following the process of forming the Lebanese government. These sources indicated that the US administration issued a clear warning to the Prime Minister-designate, Nawaf Salam, stating that the era of the Biden administration, which was characterized by American leftist tendencies, is over, and that the Trump administration will not tolerate any government that includes representatives of Hezbollah or the Shiite duo, even if it is through indirect or “disguised” figures, such as Yassin Jaber.

The sources confirmed that the Trump administration will not tolerate any challenge to its policies, threatening to impose strict US sanctions on the government and its members, most notably the Prime Minister-designate himself. They also warned that any violation of this warning will lead to wasting the last opportunity to save Lebanon economically, which could deepen its financial crisis and increase its international isolation.

Shein ordering. Page vs on your own

I just noticed the ar. Shein website has way cheaper price compared to the same cart on the app. Like 40 dollar difference for a 200 dollar order.

So what happens if I order. How do i pay customs. Where do I go and what do I expect. I'm pretty sure it's cheaper than paying for the page because they follow the app price not the website.

So if I pay do I need to go to the port to pay for customs? How does it happen. And is it more expensive than the pages or not.

Why wouldn’t he buried in his hometown?

I’m curious as to why he would not be buried in his hometown?
Instead, in a “plot of land” he’ll be buried, around of the old/new Beirut airport road(s).

Should we bring back death sentence?

Regarding all the unleashed unacceptable crimes that we faced these last months and years in Lebanon, do you think we should consider the establishment of the death sentence again? Our country is a zoo, people are animals and no one gives a f about laws anymore, no one is afraid of committing crime and i think it's due to the lack of examplarity that from my pov can easily be given by death sentence. Bi kafe e3dem wa7ad la te2teni3 el nes.

What do you think?

Junior Software developer salary in Lebanon

I think I will be going to an interview and they asked in email about the salary i expect and other things. I know... This is the ever existing question in job searching.

Just wanna know what I should say for here in Lebanon?

I am a fresh graduate with like 3 worth-mentioning big projects on my resume. I just don't wanna say something so low or something over what they can offer. they seem to not be so big of a company although they have offices in Dubai and Egypt somehow.

is 750 low? maybe 800?
